Sorry for the empty post, I've got new glasses...
I have basically similar plans.
The new digital is not primary for fishing, but for traveling, for flies
(It has macro and super macro capabilities). I plan to purchase a second
digicam samehow later, for fishing and outdoor. This will be a very low
prices thing, small, fits into fishing vest etc. Maybe waterproof.
But now I'm looking for a bigger one with more pfotographic capabilities.
Thanks
Rene

Hey Rene,
Try looking at the Pentax Optio,
Be sure it's the Pentax Optio WP. The WP stands for "Waterproof".
The plain Pentax Optio is $100 less, but is not waterproof.
It gets good pictures, but I don't like composing the picture on the
screen. I prefer one that has an
eye-level view finder. That's just my own personal opinion. But
you've got to remember I'm an old dog and can't learn new tricks.

don't have to rub it in!!)
The Pentax Optio does NOT have the capabilities of the Fuji 5700. It
has the advantage of being much smaller and fits nicely into a pocket
of your fishing vest. I have one and always take it when I'm in a
fishing situation. For all other pictures, I use a 'bigger' camera.
